Boredom Abounds, Waiting for that one phone call...

[Ran Mouri]

Ran Mouri sat on the old and beaten couch of the Mouri resident's living room, idly changing channels, stopping occasionally when something caught her interest. Her father had consumed a whole six pack of beer the previous night and was currently snoring his head off back in the bedroom. The teen's thumb twitched, changing the channel for the billionth time. Click...wait...click...wait. This pattern had been going on for a grand total of two hours and fourty three minutes, and it was getting really old, really fast. Oddly blue eyes traveled to the phone waiting on her father's desk. Ring... she urged it mentally. Ring and let it be Shinichi telling me he's coming home...he doesn't even have to be coming home...just let him call. She stared longingly at the device, trying to remember what he looked like...what he sounded like. Unwilled and unnoticed tears welled up in those beautiful eyes, slowly flowing down her cheeks with each blink. When she finally did notice she was crying, she hurridly wiped the tears away with a sleeve, taking a deep and steadying breath. Conan, bless his little heart, would be worried and upset if he found her crying yet again, and that was the last thing she wanted...

Conan hated days like this. Nothing to do, no mysteries to solve, nothing.

'I'm shure am not going outside with the Detective Boys', he thought to himself.'I wonder what Ran is up to?'

He hoped off the bed, and headed to the living room.

"Hi Ran-neechan!" he chirped, as he walked in to the room.

[ooc: sorry for any spelling mistakes ^^; i kinda suck at spelling........]

[Ran Mouri]

|ooc: Quite alright XD I'm a Freshman in Highschool and still find myself spelling "through" when I meant to say "threw". Happens to all of us XD |

Ran first jumped at the child's voice in suprise, but calmed and looked up, smiling softly. "Hello, Conan-kun. " she stretched gently, offering him the remote. "Not a lot on. Typical, huh?" she watched him intently for a moment. "Are you hungry or anything?" she inquired.

|ooc: Ahhhh X_X Lazy Bunnyyyy... that's what I get for writing this at 5:57am... meh...'s too early -trudges off to get ready for school- |

[Kojima Genta 1]

"have you been crying, Ran-neechan?" he asked, hopeing that wasn't the answer.

[Ran Mouri]

She stopped, staring at him for a second or two, before her gaze softened, and she nodded. " Good job, Conan-kun. You'll rival Sinichi when you're older..." her voice wavered at his name, and she looked dangerously ready to break down all over again. Ran held it in though. She sighed heavily. " I miss him a lot. I know you must miss your parents, and it's a little like that. It's like a part of me is missing, you know?"

[Kojima Genta 1]

Conan hoped up onto the couch, and sat next to Ran.

"Well I guess..." he said with a bit of uncertanty in his voice. "I'm shure Shinichi-niisan will be back soon..." he whispered half to himself.

'I hope so' he thought to himself.

[Ran Mouri]

She smiled, pulling his small form into her arms, resting her head atop his. "You're very good at making me feel better, Conan-kun." Her arms tightened a bit around him, breathing deeply.

[Kojima Genta 1]

Conan blushed a little. I wish I could hold you in my arms, and tell you I'm back for good' he thought. 'But I can't, and it's all that organization's fault'.

"Thanks Ran-neechan..." he wispered leaning back into her embrace.

[Ran Mouri]

"No, thank you, Conan-kun. I don't know what I'd do without you." She sat there for a few minutes, savoring his heartbeat and warmth. Her embrace loosened. "Are you hungry or anything?" she repeated. She had a nasty habit of doing that... she would change the subject after moments like that.

[Kojima Genta 1]

"No, not relly" he replied. Truth be told he'd rather stay as they are.

[Ran Mouri]

"Alright." she mumbled, placing her head back on his. She had gotten herself very comfortable, and now very content with Conan laying there. Her mind wandered to thoughts of her best friend and love interest, however. It was going to be another one of those days, she could tell. She, of course, had no idea her arms were currently wrapped around him.

[Kojima Genta 1]

Conan wished with all his might to be big again, but of corse that didn't work.

If only wishing was all I had to do to come back to you Ran...'

[Ran Mouri]

She yawned gently. She hadn't gotten much sleep last night; it had been stormy, and those always made her think of him. After a short while, she lay down, easing the boy down with her, and in an even shorter time, she had fallen asleep. Her firm grip around the boy loosened quite a deal, and her breathing evened out. For the first time all morning she looked truely at ease.

|ooc: Wheeee ^.^ this is funnnnn...|

[Kojima Genta 1]

Ran falling asleep with him in hand suprised him a bit.

'I don't want to wake her up....' he thought to himself. 'I don't think I'd be able to anyways.'

"Besides it's kinda comfertable...." he yawned.

It didn't take long for him to drift off to sleep too.


[ooc: hehe fluff is so fun ^^]

[Ran Mouri]

|ooc: Yayyyyy for fluffff -tries to sing, but discovers her throat is far to sore and winds up making a rhaspy thing that hurts- GADS ><;;; |

She awoke within the next two hours, laying there groggily. When she first awoke, she had been confident it was Sinichi in her arms. Conan and he looked so very similar, and halfway asleep, up close, and from behind, it took a few moments to register that he wasn't him.
